" Jag kun,I believe you have a better plan, the reason why you're leaving the company. You see, I still wanted you to work with us but if that would be your decision, I respect that. Hope you can still keep in touch with us." - BOSS

Last Tuesday, my boss invited the whole engineering team for a dinner. He wanted to eat *shabu-shabu so, that time he brought us to a Chinese shabu-shabu restaurant which is located at Pasay Road in Makati City (I forgot the name of the restaurant...uhmmm sounds like Thian Thian or something). And yeah, the said dinner was intended for me 'coz it' was my last day of work in the company. Whew! Good thing he treated us, nakaligtas ako sa panlilibre sa mga officemates ko wahihihi. The food were awesome. Sorry, I wasn't able to take some pictures. I was too shy to take food photos while I'm with my boss. Otherwise, I would look silly to him if I did (or it's just me thinking that way) LOL.

I am thankful that my boss was happy for my decision and finally accepted my resignation. He actually kept on asking many times before if I can revoke my decision. He even "offered" me something but I could only answer him a smile lol (hindi kasi sapat ang offer niya haha joke lang). But I never rued working in the company. I am so blessed with the opportunities they'd presented me. I am supposed to fly for Thailand last August but I declined. I guess many of you thinks that I am foolish eh? Well, I am haha. But seriously, I finally got tired. Hindi na masaya and no longer productive at work. Pinag-isipan ko nga ito ng matagal, consulted some people, minsan din bumyahe at nagpakalayo-layo mag-isa just to weigh things. And finally came up with this kind of decision--- to start anew. I know I'm burning bridges... and whatever repercussions I would have in the future, I am ready for it..

aww! good luck on your new would be career. ;) while I was reading I was like "what??is he out of his mind for quitting his job?" then I read you're being unproductive & not happy anymore, so yeah I guess it's understandable. :D

I wish you all the best Jag and hopefully you will find something that you really wanted or searching for. AKo gani I am still not sure what I want in life. I am happy with my job and my relationship with my family but I still feel that I want to do something which until now I can't figure out what is it...

Jag i think you made a good decision since yu are no longer productive and u are losing your interest in your job which I think would be the most important reason of staying in the company. I had people who also passes resignation letters and I don't bother as long as they know what they really want and where they are heading. Loosing people is not easy but we all have career aspirations and you just followed yours! Good luck on your new endeavors! :)

wow... for your boss to be able to say those things about you, offer you a promotion, and still wish you luck after resigning says a lot about your work ethic... or serious ass-kissing power. haha. kidding... i'm sure it's the work ethic thing.... i totally get your explanation and i don't think it's foolish at all. life is too short to spend it on things don't make us happy kaya ang amsasabi ko sayo... follow your heart's desire and ... i'm happy for you. cheers :P

My Abode

Who?! Me?!

Can't find the right words to describe myself...uhmm...insanely sane? haha...I am a simple guy who wants simple things in life and the only prized possession I have is my family. They are the ones who helped fortify my well-being (and the reason why I am here). In my fine time if not watching tv, blogging or sound trippin', I sleep a lot (and that makes me happy hehehe). I love hiking, biking , and going out of town. Isa sa pinakapangarap ko sa buhay ay ang makapag-sky dive. Sana matupad 'yun someday soon. I am not so into gaudy get up...I'm comfortable of wearing jeans and shirt. If you would ask me to define love? Aumigaud! It's a tough question. I don't have a right definition on that but I can show you the way I understand it.
Yeah baby! It's me Jag!
